About Me


I'm a self-proclaimed "Southern Girl". I grew up on the eastern coast of North Carolina; the middle child of two of the best parents on earth! I was a precocious kid, the one who always asked, “Why?” As a teenager I loved reading books because it was the perfect escape from my small hometown. I’d meet interesting people and travel to exciting places, all without leaving the Michael Jackson (don't laugh, he was "IT" back in the day) covered walls of my bedroom. So it's no wonder that I eventually became a writer. After many "stops" and "goes", I finally did it...I'm a published author! I love what I do, and there's no greater feeling than that! I'm living life and lovin' it!

Check me out on my website at www.tricehickman.com , and get your copy of, Unexpected Interruptions, today!..............

What happens when a young woman falls for two men--one black, one white, both determined in their pursuit for her affections?......Open the pages and take an unforgettable journey with Victoria Small, a smart, savvy sister who's fresh off a year-long, self-imposed hiatus...from men! Now that she's ready to start dating again, she gets more than she bargained for when Ted Thornton, a powerful blue-eyed CEO, and Parker Brightwood, a talented, ambitious young surgeon, enter her life. As Victoria's relationship heats up with both men, she resurrects a painful secret she thought she'd buried long ago, and finds herself doing things she never thought she'd do!
